Gun metallic. Well no such sound in my car, its quieter than the 9th gen civic. Eurostar tires did produce noise, once I changed to Yokohama advan dB, I am surprised at the noise level even at speeds above 160 kph.

Cat eyes and small pot holes sounded like loud THUD inside the cabin, that's when I ditched the euro. Its just ****.

No whistles or anything at all. Just engine vroom when u floor. If u drive normally you won't even hear the engine for once in a day.

i m also driving 9th gen and its also fun to drive especially the feeling at gear shifting when accelerator is pressed hard.. some ppl say this is missing in Altis bcoz of Cvti.. what do u say??

Yes agreed. No jerks in the transmission which we term as the fun part. But that's the whole point of CVT. Though it does kick when u floor, once the rpm stabilizes, the pull becomes constant. Then again when u let off the pedal and the car stops pulling, u again feel effect of acceleration seizing, then you realize the car was pulling hard and gaining speed.

As for acceleration, zara sa pedal dain to meter ghoom jata hai poora, LOTS and LOTS of lower rpm torque, start from stand sill kicks just like a manual car. City steermatic was sluggish in lower rpm response. Just that when its accelerating, you don't actually feel the thing gaining speed. That's the difference between conventional AT and CVT. I hope you understand what I wrote

compared to 1.3 auto it is better buy bcoz its engine size is reasonable But it has been launched at wrong time.. Year end and many auto buyers of this price range have already booked their vehicles.. Gli auto is pre booked till May..
Secondly non filers also prefer Gli auto as they have to pay 60K extra WH Tax for 1.6....

Gunmetal is nice color.. even better shade this time as compared to 10th gen Rolla

Yeah thanks I had the choice between red wine, bronze and gun metallic. Most of the votes went in favour of gun metallic. Still after booking I changed to bronze but saw an altis in bronze in day light and it was looking dull to me, like a funny color, as if its really dirty.

bhai auto sells better than manual atleast ... 1.6 manual was the worst in terms of sale in last generation .. that is why the discontinued it and continued with auto ....

Still they could've sold it better as 1.6 gli .. drop the lame resistive touch navi and alloys ... keep price around 18.7-18.8 lacs with 1600cc engine .. and it would've hit off good .. with updated engine , altis like fabric seats and key less entry alteast for 1.6 GLI

70% bookings were with non filers, at the time I booked. So you can easily guess. It is better buy but there is XLi auto as well, jo GLi nahe le raha wo altis kia lay ga. I was also up for GLi but u know that falling in love with altis happened. lol.

Han ji I agree on this... I just thought may be the youth would prefer 1.6 manual as they termed it a "beast" in the last model.

This is a better idea though, 1.3L Xli auto and manual, Gli should have been 1.3 manual and 1.6 auto. That would have been a hit for sure. That touch is VERY ugly in 1.6 altis.

Hehe.. Thanks... I am a bit reluctant at the moment to get any major stuff changed in the car. I am planning projector headlights from Thai, maybe I will go for the buttons as well. I think the clock spring will be different in Grande and hardtop.

definitely i will
which color is urs???
someone was saying that Cvti gives slight whistle like sound while accelerating.. Is it so???

Thats true, CVTi are famous for whining, but still outstanding. The only thing that i dont like is that its transmission from 1 gear to another is so smooth that u dont feel the push at all even if u apply throttle, hence less fun for heavy foot drivers

Power wears out those who don't have it !

Gear hota he ek hai sir, they've left nothing to the "feel". No whining issue in my car, you should get urs checked.

I have seen people pushing 1.8cvti and it surely seems fast in pick, don't know about its top speed performance that whether it crosses 200 km mark with ease or not

I am sure it will cross 200kph if pushed from the start upto the G10 signal on kashmir highway, maine to mazak kia and it hit 170. I will show you top speed in a day or two, I think no one has posted it on PW yet.
